Today, let's have a look at two very different security systems, and the crime they each put an end to. One of these systems was very advanced, a cutting edge home security setup. The other was extremely basic: a single security camera, installed on the fly to put an end to repeated incidents. Both were totally effective.
Wired for Prevention: Maryland Trio Caught in the Act
A resident of Hyattsville, MD, had the foresight and resources to install a top of the line digital video surveillance system at his home. His motivation was the same as anyone else's when setting up home security: to provide a safer and more secure environment for family and property.
At 9:30am on Monday, November 26, local police received a call from the homeowner himself, stating that his home was in the process of being burglarised. Police went immediately to the address in question, interrupting three home intruders in the midst of their day's work.
Amazingly, the victim was not even at home when the break-in occurred: out for the day, he was actually notified by his phone of a breach in his security perimeter. Using remote digital technology, he was then able to view the burglary in real time through his phone! With a system like that, those criminals didn't stand a breath of a chance.
All three men were caught in possession of stolen goods and now face charges of first degree burglary and theft of items valued between $1,000 and $10,000.
Carpenter's Con: Stopping Crime on the Fly
Working to make ends meet for himself and his family, Benny is a carpenter in Reading, PA. Benny became the target of a particularly malicious series of thefts in early November.
Over the course of three days, first his $600.00 set of tools - the basis of his independent business - and then his ladder were stolen from his truck. Desperate to put an end to the disruptive acts of criminality, Benny came up with a simple, affordable plan: he would lure the thief back, and catch him on camera.
Having carefully wrapped an assortment of sand and bread in sealed boxes, Benny loaded his lure into the back of his truck - plain for all to see. He installed a basic security camera next to his home, and sat back to wait.
It wasn't long before the cat came back. In broad daylight, a man approached and entered Benny's truck soon afterward. He left, but came back to examine the goods later on. The carpenter's beautifully basic setup worked: Frederick Devon Allison was identified from Benny's tapes and arrested for his efforts.
